A spokesperson told us, "However much you love the classic Les Paul look, feel, and tone, some playing styles just require a longer scale. Whether it's bangin' dropped tunings, liquid-like slide work, or meaty low-string twang, or just a preference for a little more string tension and a longer neck, the Les Paul Long Scale from Gibson Custom nails it all. With a 25 ½" scale length, it brings an alternative playing feel, piano-like bass notes, sparkling harmonic clarity, and characteristic long-scale 'snap' to the table, all within the template of the world's most highly prized solidbody electric guitar."

The Les Paul Long Scale is available in both of your all-time favorite Gibson neck shapes: a beefy true '59 profile, or a V2 SlimTaper™ '60 profile.
